Cheap Flights to Swarland from HK$675

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Swarland could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some great options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Swarland, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
